2026 NAR Leadership Academy
Stacy Stahl (FL), 2025 Chair of the NAR Leadership Academy, gives an overview of the program, expectations, and qualifications for the Leadership Academy.
The application process is now open.
REALTOR® members who have leadership experience at the local and/or state level, but have not yet been actively involved at the national level, should apply to the Leadership Academy. The Academy is focused on developing participants' institutional, industry, and association knowledge.
Leadership Academy participants will have the opportunity to develop, enhance, and hone their leadership skills and competencies. The program will allow future leaders to experience multiple facets of leadership and define their leadership style along the way. Leadership Academy participants will also learn the history, structure, and inner workings of NAR leadership and work in teams to complete and present a Capstone Project.
2026 Sessions
